    Raven Embry - Cece's amazing summer groom.
    Julie V.

    Been going to CECE for years - Raven adores her and always looks amazing when she is done. I tried for years to get groomers to leave her eyelashes long - CECE nailed it the first time!

    Our pup, Boba, stayed with Cece for a few days while we went out of town. She took such great care of her and sent us updates and pictures throughout the day, each day. Cece treated Boba as her own, and I never felt like I had to worry because we could clearly see that Boba was well cared for at Cece's. She answered every question I had before and during Boba's stay. We were also able to book a full groom while Boba stayed with Cece. She asked questions and allowed me to clarify exactly what I wanted (which goes way beyond what many other groomers do). The price, quality, and service really are unbeatable. I highly recommend her services and we're so glad to have found someone Boba can stay with so we can be worry-free on our trips.

    It has been awhile since our girl dog Bella has gone to a professional groomer. She is a medium sized short haired breed. So grooming her at home isn't too difficult. We wanted to spoil her though; so we took her to Practical Cuts . Glad we did. Contacting Practical Cuts by phone. I text chatted with Cece the owner and operator. She was very responsive and answered all my questions. We had a great back and forth. She was also very flexible appointment wise. So I made a time for her to see my Bella in a few days. Practical Cuts, the business itself, is in a modest residential area. Cece does all the work from her own home with all the essential equipment to groom pets. The setup is actually pretty impressive. Upon meeting Cece. You can tell she loves what she does and loves animals. The best part is that Cece does quality work. She had our dog looking the best she ever has (coat, nails, ears, etc.) and at a reasonable fee. Cece is awesome. Support local business especially the good ones. Practical Cuts is great. Bring your pet here.

    Very happy with the service provided and final result for my little terrier mix. I was able to get a grooming estimate and schedule my appointment all via text. Cece was very professional and came to greet me as soon as I pulled up the house. She showed me where my dog would be groomed and said in the future she could do "curbside pickup" to save time. The quality of the cut was just as good as any groomer running out of a storefront and the price was significantly lower, plus she was done in a fraction of the time. I think I found a new groomer!

    Cece has groomed my dogs for several years and I won't even consider letting anyone else groom them. Cece came into my life after I posted a rant and photo of the burns and nicks on my pups that the groomer was unconcerned over. Cece promised to never be that way. My pups love her. They come home with a beautiful clip and they are never in pain. Cece goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure the safety and comfort of her clients, and that makes all the difference in the world. If you want your pups CARED for, Cece is your groomer of cho

    By far the most knowledgeable and AMAZING groomer I've had YET!! My Lhasa didn't take to well with the 2nd groomer she had and well, since then we had to get her sedated before even going to a groomer it was very hard to find one that would take her. And then came Cece....I wish I went to her first! I would've saved all this trouble and heartache for my pup as well as money. She's reasonably priced, she does an amazing job, and my babygirl came out smiling after her groom. Something she's NEVER done before. She also keeps me updated throughout the groom because I'm a ball of nerves not for my pup, but what she might do to Cece Cece is GREAT with any of your fur babies. You won't be disappointed. Thank you so much!!

    Dew claw was short already it was unnecessary to cut but too short!!!! You can see red spots all nails. Also didn't trim paws hair

    I took my dogs Cece-practical cuts because my regular groomers were closed for Covid-19. After taking my dogs there, they came back so hurt they didn't eat for the rest of the day. They were hurting because she cut their nails too short and cut into the quick nail (inner nail) causing alot of bleeding and discomfort. They were also shaking and scratching their ears and body, maybe from a bad rinsing. When I checked their ears, they were turning red and bleeding from all the scratching, especially with the misshapen nails even 3 days after. When I realized all the grooming errors, I spoke to Cece and she said she needed to cut the quick nail due to its length. However, every opinion I asked afterwards says she cut way too short (5 groomers so far) Even if she thought she needed to, she didn't ask or let me know before she caused my dogs so much discomfort. She had my phone number... She even said most  customers like how she cuts nails, but ghats hard to believe seeing how much pain it's caused. I also noticed the time she took. Most groomers take 1 1/2 to 2 hours per dog. She took 45 minutes. I realized afterwards she was even scheduling for 45 minute blocks. This makes me believe she purposely didn't care for my dogs properly trying to take in as much business as she can. This woyld also explain the sloppy manner she groomed/ handled them. She also told me she needed to muzzle my dog because she had bitten her. My dog has never bitten any groomers before. She is always calm before, so if this is true then its proof of how poorly she treated my dogs. She claims she's been grooming for 19 years. If so, then how does she seem to lack basic skills needed for grooming? Even interactions with her were unproffesional and unreasonable. If you care for your dogs, please for their sake don't take them here. They will be treated in a brutish and uncompassionate manner. As you can see her response to my review is a complete lie. Proof of how she treated my dogs are in the pictures! Clearly this is no longer a conversation. She is adding misinformation to confuse the situation. The pictures and my experience has been shared. There is a reason my review is not the only negative review about her care of dogs.

    CeCe LOVES dogs. She does a superb job grooming and/or onboarding our fur babies. I got a few outfits for my Chihuahua from CeCe, my favorite one is the bomber one...I would recommend Practical Cuts to everybody!

    Jack before Cece and after Cece!!
    Deirdre F.

    Cece did a fantastic job with our "Jack" he went in looking like an almost 3 year old and came out looking like a puppy. He hated getting his nails trimmed and has been asked to be sedated by the vet for a "trim." Cece cut his nails effortlessly with Jack "hugging" her, we saw the video! We love his summer cut!!

    Dog

    My dog is known for being aggressive at other pet salons so I let Cece know ahead of time. As soon as she was finished, she let me know that my Macy girl did so good and wasn't aggressive. She let me know that it is all about the environment! That being said, she's AMAZING! Since my dogs first haircut, we have taken the other 5 dogs in my house to go see her; many of them being their first haircut ever. She's fast, kind & does great work!

After having a…read morebad experience with a self-employed sitter, spotty availability with another self-employed sitter, and then deciding not to travel altogether, Leila and her amazing team at Precious Pet Care showed me that their high standard of care meant I could be at ease and take vacations again! I was referred to Precious Pet Care by a dog trainer I know. I was interested in their Golden Overnight Care services, a 24-hour service where the sitter is with my babies all day! In particular, my dogs are extremely attached as they are used to coming to work with me and generally being around me 24/7, so this type of sitter service was a must! I was given a link to request a meet & greet and schedule the days a sitter was needed in my home and met with my assigned sitter, Kate, prior to my requested days. Ever the worrier about my dogs, cats, birds, and guinea pigs that I would be apart from, Kate handled my bombarding her with information in good stride. During my vacation, I was pleased to see that she sent numerous photos, videos, and updates daily! Kate made me feel completely at ease while I was away and was such a great communicator. Upon my return, all my critters were happy, and the house was neat and clean! Kate made sure to take the trash out and clean up after herself as well. Truly a 5-star experience! I would highly recommend their Golden Overnight Care services to anyone who wants to enjoy peace of mind on their next getaway! Thank you to Leila, Kate, and the entire Precious Pet Care Team!

A neighbor recommended Katie of Wolf Girl Canine Club on Nextdoor, and I decided to give training one more shot. Boy, am I glad I did. Katie worked magic with our sled dog. She now expects to play the "heel game" on every walk, and when we run out of treats, she still stays right by my side. What a difference. Walks are now a joy, and the carpal tunnel that I didn't know was caused by the sled dog has eased. I loved how Wolf Girl Canine Club approaches training with kindness and patience - no choke collars, shock collars, or harsh reprimands. Our sweet but stubborn girl heeled because she wanted to. She adored her friend Katie and looked forward to the training sessions. And, while she had suffered from abandonment issues with the other trainer, by the second lesson, she was ignoring us and happily setting off with her new friend. Katie also kept us up to date with photos and even training videos so that we could see er work and follow-up on her progress. This extra effort really helped us stay on track. I recommend Katie and her methods without reservation. Wolf Girl Canine Club will be our first step with future fosters. And, frankly, I cannot wait to see the next transformation. I am so grateful to have found a kind, effective, and thorough trainer.

He did a fine job, and I didn't have any major issues. My only issue in the beginning was that he told me AFTER our meet and greet that the time clock for walks starts when he walks into the building. I showed him the entrance closer to my place (which is right by the entrance), but he wasn't using that one at first. While I had wished that he communicated this during our meet and greet, I wasn't upset by it after we had established a steady routine. A few weeks/months after I settled into my new job, I had been granted the ability to work from home full time with a few occasional sporadic days in the office. I texted him to tell him that I won't need a walker after a certain date and explained that I'll be WFH. I even told him that I'd still like to reach out on days I'd have to be in-office. Later that day, he called to "ask" me what he did wrong. His tone was extremely confrontational and aggressive. I reiterated that I don't need a walker anymore because my situation had changed. He kept demanding an explanation. Honestly, I felt really put off by this. I had to tell him several times that it's because the situation had changed and it took multiple attempts to get him off the phone. He kept trying to push me because he didn't seem to believe me. Honestly, I don't care if he did. Before this conversation, I probably would have asked him to walk my dog on the days that I'd be in the office, but this made me so uncomfortable. Over the period of several months, he occasionally texted and/or called to ask me if we had any dog walking needs. I didn't answer, but eventually texted him to tell him that we did not. I understand his wanting a "reason" to try to improve. However, I gave him a reason. And even if I didn't, I don't necessarily owe him one to the point where he has to demand one repeatedly.
